FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

,am writing regarding a severe safety issue at the [XXX] Mitsubishi location. Over a month ago, I brought my 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor in for an open federal safety recall regarding a fuel leak (NHTSA Recall 10V065000). I was sent away without a safe vehicle while parts were 'ordered.'Five days ago, the new service manager promised a callback the next day. I was ghosted. Today, I attempted to follow up on my parts status, and it appears the service desk has blocked my phone number. I am currently operating a vehicle that actively leaks raw gasoline at the pump in the Milwaukee area. This is a massive corporate liability. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

POWER TRAIN

WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP OUT OF GEAR FROM DRIVE TO NETURAL TO DRIVE WHILE BOTH LIGHTS ARE SHOWING THE CAR IS IN THAT GEAR . WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE THE CAR BRAKES ENGAGED AND THE WENT BACK INTO DRIVE ,AND I HAD TO DRIVE HIW AT A VERY LOW SPEED TO MAKE IT HOME.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

FUEL FILLER NECK IS DEFECTIVE CAUSING CODE P0442. CAR VIN WAS NEVER PART OF RECALL. I SHOULD GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS REPAIR.

STEERING,UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I HAD REPLACED THE WATER PUMPS GETTING READY TO REPLACE IT AGAIN AND WHEN IT WENT OUT THE POWER STEERING MESSED UP I'M ALSO HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TIMING BELT IT WAS REPLACED AT 112,000 MILES AND IT WAS INSPECTED AT 121,000 AND WAS OKAY BUT IT SNAPPED ON ME THE OTHER DAY THE HIGHWAY REPLACING IT FOR THE SECOND TIME NOW AT 188,000+ MILES NOT EVEN 100,000 MILES LATER FROM THE FIRST TIME. THIS ISN'T CHEAP ALSO MY HEATER CORE WENT AGAIN.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID BATTERY FINE FEW DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID BATTERY BAD. I REPLACED BATTERY. FEW DAYS LATER, CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER PUMPING FUEL IN - TOOK TO MECHANIC; HE SAID NEW BATTERY FINE. SINCE CAR DID NOT START 3 TIMES IN A ROW AFTER PUMPING GAS, AND I NEEDED A JUMP EVERY TIME, I HAD MECHANIC DO A DIAGNOSTIC. HE SAID THE ISSUE WAS TIED TO A RECALL BULLETIN. 10V065000 - FILLER PIPE AND CAP. CALLED MITSUBISHI TO FIX IT BUT THEY SAID MY CAR DOES NOT QUALIFY BECAUSE I AM STATE OF CALIFORNIA. I DO A LOT OF MY DRIVING IN SNOW SO I FEEL MITSUBISHI SHOULD FIX THIS FOR ME. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD SO I NEED TO FIX IT ASAP (PLUS I DON'T WANT TO GET STUCK AT A GAS STATION AGAIN NEEDING A JUMP). I'D LIKE MITSUBISHI TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THIS EXPENSE BECAUSE NOW I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.
